CLEAR is like a bouncer let you in at the front of the line at a club; only works if it is exclusive. But in this case, everyone at ATL has CLEAR rendering it worst than a normal line.
Too true. I arrived at ATL domestic at 9:15am and today the CLEAR “greeter” was kind enough to ask if I was in a hurry because regular TSA was running faster than CLEAR + TSA. I decided to go regular and got through in less than 5 minutes. I watched people in the CLEAR line who would have been 20 spots in front of me still waiting to get scanned. I feel liberated.
